Project
Description
Council Motion: Discussion and possible direction to the City of Georgetownʹs Transportation
Advisory Board (GTAB) to conduct an analysis and make a recommendation to the City Council
no later than June 24, 2014 ,regarding the Cityʹs potential future participation in State and
Regional Transportation Organizations including the benefits, conditions, and justification which
would prompt the Cityʹs participation in Project Connect, Lone Star Rail and any other relevant
State and Regional Transportation Organizations that the City should be involved with ‐‐ Steve
Fought, Councilmember, District 4
Amended Motion:
1. The City Manager to determine what time and effort staff have available to conduct this type
of study over the next year. If it is not in the Transportation Division, Planning Department,
Finance Department and/or City Manager’s Office work program, as outlined in the current
draft budget, can it be adequately staffed to complete this level of work over the next year?
2. Is the challenge to research Federal, State and Regional transportation organizations or is it
transit programs? This direction to staff is assuming it is transit programs.
3. Narrow the specific analysis to programs that are actually authorized to receive Federal
formula and discretionary funding programs found within the current Federal Transit
Administration. However, that would narrow the field down to three agencies or programs.
Capital Metro, Lone Star Rail and the State of Texas through the Texas Department of
Transportation. CARTS is only a contractor to Capital Metro and provides certain 5310
transit opportunities to persons outside of the Capital Metro Service Area in our jurisdiction.
CAMPO, Project Connect, Project Connect North and My35 are simply planning programs
that include staff from Capital Metro, Lone Star Rail District, and TxDOT and
representatives from local governments.
4. The analysis should be based on how those planning programs will lead to funding through
the project delivery agencies. (Fought amended to include financial risk and benefits to the City)
5. The Council should provide the Board and staff specifics on what type of economic analysis
data will lead to an ultimate decision by the City Council.
6. Finally, some people ‘can’t see what the final project would look like’ or ‘can’t see what a
Transit Oriented Development would look like.’ Years ago, when the City was looking at
transportation options and creating a TOD ordinance, there was a field trip to perform some
on the ground research. Members of the City Council, Planning and Zoning, and staff
(GTAB was not in existence at the time) went and stayed at a TOD to see for themselves.
We should have at least one field trip during this study. Since it has been about 8 years or
so since that first and only field trip, it should be extremely informative to do it again and
see what a TOD looks like today and how the project has performed over the years.
Vote on the original motion as amended: Approved (6‐1) (Hesser opposed)

(Halff) 2nd Street engineering has been added to the 2013‐14 engineering of phase
two 2nd Street (Myrtle to College). Construction of all of 2nd will move to 2015
during VFW renovation. Initial designs were reviewed on Monday, Oct. 28th by
Parks, Engineering and Transportation Services. 6th Street under design. Staff is
soliciting input from property owners on south side for possible sidewalk
improvements.
9th Street (Main to
Rock)
(KPA) A conceptual schematic is complete. Staff is currently meeting with affected
businesses to solicit input and to discuss possible issues. Construction should
proceed in 2014. In‐house installation of splash pad drain pending waterline
replacement. Staff is working with electric engineer to identify and approve future
conduit assignments. Plans are nearing 100% and ready to go to bid.
Chip Seal Sun City Blvd. is complete. Complaints about noise and fears of the road failing has
prompted staff to fog seal the road to help quite the road noise and help retain
aggregate. Summercrest subdivision is also experiencing some aggregate loss. A
new product “Quickset” by Western Emulsions is being tested on a small section of
Sun City Blvd. near SH 195. (24x40) The product is looking favorable and does allow
roads to be reopened in a little more than 15 minutes. Staff has tentatively
scheduled Western Emulsions to apply this new product onto Sun City Blvd,
Summer Crest and Pecan Branch Subdivisions on January 20th to 27th. (pending
weather)
Fog Seal Survey of unfinished sections complete: (Majority of scheduled work completed)
Unfinished streets will be performed in Spring 2014. (Western Emulsions has a new
product coated with slag sand to compensate for the loss of traction due to the
asphalt coating) This should allow fog seals on some minor arterials.
Cutler/overlay Cutler on Williams Drive, Rock Street, 16th Street complete. Additional Streets
completed as a result of chip seal failures (Austin Avenue and Del Webb Blvd.)
extended the schedule in cold weather and the holiday season. Downtown Square

GTEC Performance Agreement
The Summit at Rivery Park
Page 12 of 34
(c) Submittal of Reimbursement Request. After the fulfillment of all of the
Reimbursement Conditions, Developer shall submit to the City and to GTEC a final

“Reimbursement Request”). Such information shall include, but not be limited to,
payment applications, cancelled checks evidencing payment, lien waivers from the
Contractor and all subcontractors and suppliers, the warranties required by Section 4(n)

engineer (who shall be a registered professional engineer licensed to practice in the
State of Texas) attesting to the amount of the work performed, labor furnished,
materials included, and the actual costs of each of the Qualified Expenditures shown on
Exhibit D. Developer agrees to provide all information and documents in its possession
or under its control reasonably required by the City and GTEC for proper processing
and for accurate accounting and documentation of actual costs for the construction of
the Public Roadways. The Reimbursement Request will not be considered until after all
of the Reimbursement Conditions have been completed.
(d) Review and Processing of Reimbursement Request. Provided that all of the
Reimbursement Conditions have been fulfilled, the City and GTEC shall promptly
review the Reimbursement Request and respond to Developer within fifteen (15)
business days after the receipt of a complete Reimbursement Request.
(1) If both the City and GTEC approve the Reimbursement Request, the City or
GTEC shall give Developer written notice of their approval thereof within fifteen
(15) business after its receipt of the Reimbursement Request (the “Approval of
Reimbursement Request”), but failure by the City or GTEC to respond to the
Reimbursement Request within fifteen (15) business shall not be construed to be
approval by the City or GTEC of the Reimbursement Request. Within fifteen (15)
business days after the City and GTEC provide Developer with their Approval of
Reimbursement Request, GTEC shall pay to Developer the amount specified in
the Approval of Reimbursement Request, not to exceed the GTEC Share.

than the amount submitted by Developer in the Reimbursement Request, the
City or GTEC shall work diligently and in good faith with Developer to resolve
the discrepancy within thirty (30) business days. If the Parties are unable to
resolve the discrepancy within thirty (30) business days, each Party shall have

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
1. CONTRACTOR shall purchase and maintain insurance in the types and amounts indicated below
for the duration of the Agreement (unless a longer duration is specified), which shall include
items owned by the City of Georgetown, Texas (“OWNER”) in the care, custody and control of
CONTRACTOR prior to and during the term of the Contract and all warranty periods. Failure to
purchase and maintain the required insurance shall be grounds for Termination of the Agreement
or Suspension of the Work by OWNER. Except for the Worker’s Compensation policy, the other
insurance policies required by the Agreement to be obtained by CONTRACTOR must state that
OWNER, its officials, directors, employees, representatives, and volunteers are added as
additional insureds with regard to operations and activities by or on behalf of the named insureds
performed under contract with OWNER. The additional insured status must cover completed
operations as well, and the policy covering completed work must remain in effect until the
expiration of the statue of repose.
2. CONTRACTOR must complete and forward the required Certificates of Insurance to OWNER
before the Agreement is executed as verification of coverage required below. CONTRACTOR
shall not commence Work until the required insurance is obtained and until such insurance has
been reviewed by OWNER. Approval of insurance by OWNER shall not relieve or decrease the
liability of CONTRACTOR hereunder and shall not be construed to be a limitation of liability on
the part of CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR must also complete and forward the required
Certificates of Insurance to OWNER whenever a previously identified policy period has expired
as verification of continuing coverage.
3. Contractor’s insurance coverage is to be written by companies licensed to do business in the State
of Texas at the time the policies are issued and shall be written by companies with A.M. Best
ratings of B+VII or better, except for hazardous material insurance which shall be written by
companies with A.M. Best ratings of A- or better.
4. All endorsements naming the OWNER as additional insured, waivers, and notices of cancellation
endorsements as well as the Certificate of Insurance shall indicate: City of Georgetown, 113 E.
8th Street, Georgetown, Texas 78626, ATTN: Contract Manager.
5. The “other” insurance clause shall not apply to the OWNER where the OWNER is an additional
insured shown on any policy. It is agreed that the CONTRACTOR’s insurance shall be
considered primary with respect to any insurance or self-insurance carried by OWNER. The
CONTRACTOR’S insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom a claim is
made and/or lawsuits brought, except with respect to the limits of insurer’s liability.
6. If insurance policies are not written for amounts specified below, CONTRACTOR shall carry
Umbrella or Excess Liability Insurance for any differences in amounts specified. If Excess
Liability Insurance is provided, it shall follow the form of the primary coverage.
7. OWNER shall be entitled, upon request and without expense, to receive certified copies of
policies and endorsements thereto and may make any reasonable requests for deletion or revision
or modification of particular policy terms, conditions, limitations, or exclusions except where
policy provisions are established by law or regulations binding upon either of the parties hereto or
the underwriter on any such policies.

8. OWNER reserves the right to review the insurance requirements set forth during the effective
period of this Agreement and to make reasonable adjustments to insurance coverage, limits, and
exclusions when deemed necessary and prudent by OWNER based upon changes in statutory law,

as well as CONTRACTOR.

during the term of the Agreement or as required in the Agreement.

appropriate property policy will be endorsed for transit and storage in an amount sufficient to
protect OWNER’s property.
13. The insurance coverages required under this contract are required minimums and are not intended
to limit the responsibility or liability of CONTRACTOR.
14. Without limiting any of the other obligations or liabilities of the CONTRACTOR, the
CONTRACTOR shall require each Subcontractor performing work under the Agreement, at the
Subcontractor’s own expense, to maintain during the term of the Agreement, the same stipulated

above. As an alternative, the CONTRACTOR may include its Subcontractors as additional
insureds on its own coverage as prescribed under these requirements. The CONTRACTOR’s
certificate of insurance shall note in such event that the Subcontractors are included as additional
insureds and that CONTRACTOR agrees to provide Workers’ Compensation for the
Subcontractors and their employees. The CONTRACTOR shall obtain and monitor the
certificates of insurance from each Subcontractor in order to assure compliance with the
insurance requirements. The CONTRACTOR must retain the certificates of insurance for the
